Hey all.. new to Nico, but not to Nissans.

I have a 2003 350z that is Highly modified, and I HAD a 1993 Sentra as my commuter car. A month ago .. someone rear-ended the Senrta, sending old faithful to the great junkyard in the sky .

I got a Great Deal from Frederick Nissan (Frederick MD) on this 2008 Versa SL "Sport" and wanted to express my thanks again!

Here are some pictures of the V!

Welcome, looks like the same options as I have, just a different color. You get the sub? Also ABS?

I'm sure you'll enjoy the mpg over the Z33. Is it boosted?

Got ABS.. but no sub

Z33 is a Nitrous car but not terribly fast in the strait line But it loves its corners and drift :D

Cool, I have the opposite, sub but no abs. And transmission difference as well.

Haven't seen to many people with nitrous on Z33s, about the only one I recall is a drag vid of one blowing a hole in the block.

Negative. That is the button you hit to unlock the hatch if you have smart-key

Thanks! The Versa will stay stock (minus some light tint). The Z takes most of my fun money.. and any spent on the Versa is less I can spend on the Z.. rubber and brakes are not cheap :/

There were a few black SL's .. a Blue SL .. and some silver non-SL's

Right now there is a 1000 rebate, so before my down payment, it was in the high 16's if I recall properly. Then I put down some, and the insurance check from my 93 Sentra.

Thanks! wow.. Red with a drop, wheels and tint really make this car HOT!

Any issues getting the Versa back in factory spec after the drop?

So far no one has had an issue with the alignment after spring installs.

That would have nothing to do with lowering springs though. But what's the issue?

Worried about someone stealing your photos? If you're gonna do copyright, do it tastefully. If anything could ruin the photos... that'd do it.

LOL.. I have actually had someeone steal my photos in the past, and post them as their own.. . This is less intrusive than some of the other watermarks I was considering. I was looking at using a full image watermark like this:



but.. went with what I have

LOL, yes it is an r35. US Spec Models do not have the oppressive 119 mph limiter that the jdm r35's come equipped with.
